  • Adaptive Optics Imaging of Circumstellar Environments
    Star Formation at High Angular Resolution IAU Symposium, Vol. 221, 2004 M. G. Burton, R. Jayawardhana & T.L. Bourke, eds. Adaptive Optics Imaging of Circumstellar Environments Daniel Apai, Ilaria Pascucci, Hongchi Wang, Wolfgang Brandner and Thomas Henning Max Planck Institute for Astronomy, Kimiqsiuhl 17., Heidelberg, Germany D-69117 Carol Grady NOAO/STIS, Goddard Space Flight Center, Code 681, NASA/GSFC, Greenbelt, MD 20771, USA Dan Potter Steward Observatory, University of Arizona, 933 N. Cherry Avenue, Tucson, AZ 85721, USA Abstract. We present results from our high-resolution, high-contrast imaging campaign targeting the circumstellar environments of young, nearby stars of different masses. The observations have been conducted using the ALFA/CA 3.5m and NACO UT4/VLT adaptive optics systems. In order to enhance the contrast we applied the methods PSF-subtraction and polarimetric differential imaging (PDI). The observations of young stars yielded the identification of numerous new companion candidates, the most interesting one being rv 0.5" from FU Ori. We also obtained high-resolution near-infrared imaging of the circumstellar envelope of SU Aur and AB Aur. Our PDI of the TW Hya circumstellar disk traced back the disk emission as close as 0.1" ~ 6 AU from the star, the closest yet. Our results demonstrate the potential of the adaptive optics systems in achieving high-resolution and high-contrast imaging and thus in the study of circumstellar disks, envelopes and companions. 1. Introduction Young, nearby stars are our prime source of information to study the circum- stellar disk structure and evolution. They are also the ideal targets for adaptive optics (AO) observations, as they are usually bright enough to provide excellent wavefront reference.

  • The Nearest Stars: a Guided Tour by Sherwood Harrington, Astronomical Society of the Pacific
    www.astrosociety.org/uitc No. 5 - Spring 1986 © 1986, Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 390 Ashton Avenue, San Francisco, CA 94112. The Nearest Stars: A Guided Tour by Sherwood Harrington, Astronomical Society of the Pacific A tour through our stellar neighborhood As evening twilight fades during April and early May, a brilliant, blue-white star can be seen low in the sky toward the southwest. That star is called Sirius, and it is the brightest star in Earth's nighttime sky. Sirius looks so bright in part because it is a relatively powerful light producer; if our Sun were suddenly replaced by Sirius, our daylight on Earth would be more than 20 times as bright as it is now! But the other reason Sirius is so brilliant in our nighttime sky is that it is so close; Sirius is the nearest neighbor star to the Sun that can be seen with the unaided eye from the Northern Hemisphere. "Close'' in the interstellar realm, though, is a very relative term. If you were to model the Sun as a basketball, then our planet Earth would be about the size of an apple seed 30 yards away from it — and even the nearest other star (alpha Centauri, visible from the Southern Hemisphere) would be 6,000 miles away. Distances among the stars are so large that it is helpful to express them using the light-year — the distance light travels in one year — as a measuring unit. In this way of expressing distances, alpha Centauri is about four light-years away, and Sirius is about eight and a half light- years distant.

  • Stellar Distances Teacher Guide
    Stars and Planets 1 TEACHER GUIDE Stellar Distances Our Star, the Sun In this Exploration, find out: ! How do the distances of stars compare to our scale model solar system?. ! What is a light year? ! How long would it take to reach the nearest star to our solar system? (Image Credit: NASA/Transition Region & Coronal Explorer) Note: The above image of the Sun is an X -ray view rather than a visible light image. Stellar Distances Teacher Guide In this exercise students will plan a scale model to explore the distances between stars, focusing on Alpha Centauri, the system of stars nearest to the Sun. This activity builds upon the activity Sizes of Stars, which should be done first, and upon the Scale in the Solar System activity, which is strongly recommended as a prerequisite. Stellar Distances is a math activity as well as a science activity. Necessary Prerequisite: Sizes of Stars activity Recommended Prerequisite: Scale Model Solar System activity Grade Level: 6-8 Curriculum Standards: The Stellar Distances lesson is matched to: ! National Science and Math Education Content Standards for grades 5-8. ! National Math Standards 5-8 ! Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (grades 6 and 8) ! Content Standards for California Public Schools (grade 8) Time Frame: The activity should take approximately 45 minutes to 1 hour to complete, including short introductions and follow-ups. Purpose: To aid students in understanding the distances between stars, how those distances compare with the sizes of stars, and the distances between objects in our own solar system. © 2007 Dr Mary Urquhart, University of Texas at Dallas Stars and Planets 2 TEACHER GUIDE Stellar Distances Key Concepts: o Distances between stars are immense compared with the sizes of stars.

  • Planets and Exoplanets
    NASE Publications Planets and exoplanets Planets and exoplanets Rosa M. Ros, Hans Deeg International Astronomical Union, Technical University of Catalonia (Spain), Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias and University of La Laguna (Spain) Summary This workshop provides a series of activities to compare the many observed properties (such as size, distances, orbital speeds and escape velocities) of the planets in our Solar System. Each section provides context to various planetary data tables by providing demonstrations or calculations to contrast the properties of the planets, giving the students a concrete sense for what the data mean. At present, several methods are used to find exoplanets, more or less indirectly. It has been possible to detect nearly 4000 planets, and about 500 systems with multiple planets. Objetives - Understand what the numerical values in the Solar Sytem summary data table mean. - Understand the main characteristics of extrasolar planetary systems by comparing their properties to the orbital system of Jupiter and its Galilean satellites. The Solar System By creating scale models of the Solar System, the students will compare the different planetary parameters. To perform these activities, we will use the data in Table 1. Planets Diameter (km) Distance to Sun (km) Sun 1 392 000 Mercury 4 878 57.9 106 Venus 12 180 108.3 106 Earth 12 756 149.7 106 Marte 6 760 228.1 106 Jupiter 142 800 778.7 106 Saturn 120 000 1 430.1 106 Uranus 50 000 2 876.5 106 Neptune 49 000 4 506.6 106 Table 1: Data of the Solar System bodies In all cases, the main goal of the model is to make the data understandable.
